The = module tree was as you describe. I first tried loading everything by = hand, but when I got the same results then as I'm getting now, I decided = to try the modules.conf. When that also didn't work, I upgraded to beta = 12 in hopes of getting that to work. > > > > > Greg > > > > >=20 > > > > >=20 > > > > > On Wed, May 22, 2002 at 03:12:57PM -0400, Igor Gueths wrote: > > > > > > Hi Greg. I don't use modules.conf, I have a script which = loads my sound modules. Also, don't install your modules in = /lib/modules/2.4.18/kernel/sound tree, because this is in conformance = with the kernel 2.5.x tree. I have found that 2.4.18 has problems with = this. What I did was build the code as follows: ./configure = --with-oss=3Dyes --moddir=3D/lib/modules/2.4.18/misc. I created the misc = directory manually. I then wrote a script that loads the sound module, = and runs alsactl to restore the previously saved mixer configuration.=20 > > > > > > ----- Original Message -----=20 > > > > > > From: Gregory Nowak > > > > > > To: > > > > > > Sent: Wednesday, May 22, 2002 2:53 PM > > > > > > Subject: problem configuring sb16 and alsa > > > > > >=20 > > > > > >=20 > > > > > > > Hi all, > > > > > > >=20 > > > > > > > I have finally gotten around to configuring my sb16 card = with alsa 0.9.0 beta 12 on one of my machines.
